Search Engine Cloakers

If your into SEO (Search Engine Optimization), then here is another great idea for building web sites that can return a large profit. Have you ever heard of cloaking? Cloaking has been around for years, maybe even about 10 years and when it comes to the internet that is a lifetime. What cloaking does, it tricks the search engine spiders (the tiny programs that index your website) into thinking that you have hundreds or even thousands of great web pages.

When it comes to search engines, more web pages, either real or imagined by spiders usually mean much more traffic. And traffic is the key to any profitable web site. Most cloaking programs are extremely easy to configure. They have lots of options and you can fine tune them to get the best results. Although they have been proven to work year after year, there are some types of cloaking that should be avoided.

You should not use a cloaking program for spam purposes, to hide keywords or do malicious acts such as client side redirects. If you are enrolled in a pay per click program, such as Google Adsense, you can risk losing your account with any of these malicious uses.

So if you are looking for another great way to be indexed and draw traffic, then Cloaking can bring lots of traffic as well as profit.
